I have voted (I voted 2), but more than any personal preference or aesthetic consideration I think that this set should be no more or less than a JIS equivalent of the standard GMK WoB, and that people may well want to pair it with keys from that set, so whichever is closer to the standard GMK legends is the one that should be used.(All this is assuming the only thing under discussion is the typeface and not the legends themselves… obviously the legends should be those that were shown in the original renders, i.e. the 0 key should have the を legend on it, as Serika and Striker do and Laser does not, etc.)
Quote from: 2Moons on Wed, 16 November 2022, 21:27:22I was asked yesterday which font I wanted to use for GMK JIS. Please vote:https://forms.gle/6bprJeLZ3ySS1Ndd6Show ImageNumber 1. GMK Laser, Red Samurai FontShow ImageNumber 2. Serika R2, Striker R2 FontShow ImageVoting will close November 24thLooking at the examples listed, it appears there are three versions of Hiragana sub-legends available for the bracket/brace keycaps.Show ImageOption 1 examples show two different versions. Call Laser's Version A, and Red Samurai's Version B.Option 2 Serika and Striker both show Version C.Also, the Hiragana sub-legends for the period/greater than and forward slash/question mark keycaps are different between Option 1 and Option 2.Also, almost all Numrow Hiragana sub-legends are different between Option 1 and Option 2 Show ImageI'm not sure which version of Hiragana sub-legends is best, but maybe this is the more important question?______________________________________Regarding the preferred thickness of Latin legends, looking at photos of actual GMK keycaps would be better. I don't think these kit renders capture the actual product with 100% accuracy. For example, all four legends on the single quote/double quote and semicolon/colon keycaps look different.Edit: additions in italics

This is hypeEdit: Speaking of, I heard that you were planning to make h87 compatible PCBs (and others) for the JIS layout. Got any info on how that's going? and shouldn't need any different plates, right?87c JIS PCB sitting in my house waiting to go to GB with all of it done. Might need a plate.88 JIS PCB is already done and should go to group buy really soon. With plates and everything done!60 percent JIS PCB - Ai03 has one out and I'll be coming out with one after I get plates done. Safa TKL will offer a JIS ready plate with a 3u spacebar. I have a prototype with the proper plate and I'll be doing a build stream for it soon. There is a 65% JIS in the hopper which needs a prototype. In addition people are already adding JIS kitting to new GMK keycap sets! Very exciting!

Is there an ETA on shipping yet?
Now that this is being delivered soon, does anyone have a source for 4.5u stabilizer wires? Was going to build my Safa in JIS but having difficulty finding one.
